Hospice and Palliative Medicine Fellowship - To Apply

Overview

We’re excited that you are considering joining our fellowship! We welcome all applications from qualified candidates. If you have any questions about the application process after reading the information below, please do not hesitate to contact our program coordinator, Rachel Stone.

To Apply:

Our four (4) available categorical and one (1) combined Geriatrics/Palliative Care positions for the class matriculating in July will be filled through the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP, The “Match”). We begin to receive and process applications through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) starting July 15th.

To begin your application, please follow the ERAS Fellowships Documents Office instructions found here. Please be sure to register with both ERAS and NRMP in order to be eligible for the Match. You can register with NRMP by going to the NRMP Website. Please note you will need to use your AAMC ID from your ERAS application to register for the NRMP.

Applicants for the combined Geriatrics/Palliative Care program should also apply to the UCSF Geriatrics program. For additional information please contact Lynn Flint.

ERAS applications open July 15th for entry in July one year later (e.g., July 2016 applications are for the July 2017 program). Applications are preferred by September 15th and will not be accepted after October 15th. Interviews will be held from August to October and Match results will be released on December 2nd. We recommend that you request letters of recommendation early in the process as these may sometimes take many weeks to obtain.
